CVE-2026-65697
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
Fathom Lite through 1.3.1 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in the analytics collection endpoint that allows unauthenticated attackers to inject a javascript: URI into the Top Pages dashboard by supplying a crafted hostname and pathname to the unauthenticated /collect endpoint. The parseHostname and parsePathname functions perform no URI scheme validation, allowing a javascript: hostname combined with a newline-prefixed pathname to be stored and later rendered as an anchor href in the authenticated dashboard without sanitization, enabling session hijacking and full account takeover when an operator clicks the poisoned entry.

"value": "Fathom Lite hasta la versión 1.3.1 contiene una vulnerabilidad de cross-site scripting almacenada en el endpoint de recolección de analíticas que permite a atacantes no autenticados inyectar una URI javascript_disabled: en el panel de control Top Pages al proporcionar un nombre de host y una ruta de acceso manipulados al endpoint no autenticado /collect. Las funciones parseHostname y parsePathname no realizan validación del esquema URI, lo que permite que un nombre de host javascript_disabled: combinado con una ruta de acceso prefijada con salto de línea sea almacenado y posteriormente renderizado como un href de ancla en el panel de control autenticado sin sanitización, lo que permite el secuestro de sesión y la toma de control total de la cuenta cuando un operador hace clic en la entrada envenenada."
